Description Jacques LESCOT CLA 2009-12-02 06:20:33 EST 
I would like to propose an enhancement to the existing Actions. This action uses a Drop down menu to propose all createChild and createSibling actions available given the current selection using a single button. This action could be added to the treeViewer's toolbar of a EmfMasterDetailBlock, replacing the AbstractAddAction.

That feature is particularly useful when you do not want to use the actions within the contextual menu.

Patch applied; this is a nice enhancement, thanks!
I will update the "DS editor" exemplary implementation to use this new toolbar action.
